Paul Morse has resigned his 16-year role as director of environmental health and trading standards at Kensington and Chelsea RLBC, but has not moved far.

He has just taken up the reins of the council's revenue and benefits division. He said:'Benefits and council tax are very different areas of business, and it's great to be engaging with new issues each day. But, to my great relief, I find the management issues are quite similar, so I do have some relevant experience to offer.'
